This isn't a card? Maybe it is just me but if you're not looking to play the ball at all and have this kind of foul that is unsporting/reckless

Box runs. Figure 1: No. Figure 2: Yes. This concludes my analysis of box runs.

Bears fans, As loud as you were for opening day this year, as much energy as there was in the stadium, do you think Sunday you will be even louder when we rock the anthem for the @ChicagoBears vs @RamsNFL game? I bet so and I can’t wait!! #gobears #beardown

It is with profound sadness that we share the passing of Bobby Weir. We send him off the way he sent so many of us on our way: with a farewell that isn’t an ending, but a blessing.  A reward for a life worth livin'. bobweir.net/bobby/ 📸 Chloe Weir

How does Moscow view Donald Trump at the end of 2025? One Russian paper today: “The US leader’s philosophy is closer to the values of Russia’s president, not the politicians of the Old World…he sees Europe as a liberal stronghold that must be destroyed…” #ReadingRussia

Suffice to say, if the Biden or Obama DOJ was just casually tracking the travel itinerary of a reporter it would be a Watergate-level scandal, but the folks who gave Alex Thompson a standing O for "courageously" reporting on Biden's age have nothing to say about this 🙃
julie k. brown@jkbjournalist

Does somebody at the DOJ want to tell me why my American Airlines booking information and flights in July 2019 are part of the Epstein files (attached to a grand jury subpoena)? As the flight itinerary includes my maiden name (and I did book this flight) why was the DOJ monitoring me?

A statement so clearly belied by the facts: Russia has invaded Ukraine twice in an attempt to subjugate it and has spent the last four years attempting to burn the country to the ground.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

Trump: "Russia wants to see Ukraine succeed. It sounds a little strange but President Putin was very generous in his feeling toward Ukraine succeeding, including supplying energy, electricity and other things at very low prices."

I was wondering how Trump found his troop pay money without a congressional authorization/appropriation. He found it by taking it away from troop housing money. Always a con artist.
Thomas Novelly@TomNovelly

OVERNIGHT: President Trump’s $1,776 checks for 1.45 million troops announced Wednesday night come from Congressionally-allocated reconciliation funds intended to subsidize housing allowances for service members, a senior official confirmed to @DefenseOne. defenseone.com/policy/2025/12…

Private equity firms control the top 3 providers of fire department software This NYT story details how they take over affordable services, retire them, and then jack up the price of new tools by 3-5x, selling modernization while feeding off a reliable stream of taxpayer funding

As @propublica shows, @FoxNews misleads viewers to bolster a false narrative, splicing old clips and video from elsewhere to suggest that Portland is a war zone. This appears to be what led President Trump to try to dispatch national guard troops to suppress a nonexistent riot
ProPublica@propublica

ProPublica examined months of Fox News’ coverage and reviewed over 700 videos posted on social media. The network used five-year-old footage, mislabeled other dates and implied footage from elsewhere was in Portland. propublica.org/article/portla…
